Curtains Closing on Two S.F. Giants: Here's Where Hospitality is Throwing in the Towel (Kind Of)
Hey travel bugs and suitcase hoarders, listen up! San Francisco's hotel scene is about to have two major vacancies. That's right, folks, it's time to say goodbye (well, maybe more like "see ya later") to a couple of hospitality heavyweights.

| What Two Hotels Are Closing In San Francisco |
Who's getting the eviction notice?
Brace yourselves for this shocker: The 1,921-room Hilton San Francisco Union Square and the 1,024-room Parc 55 San Francisco are both packing their proverbial bags. That's a whole lotta room service menus and fluffy white towels going into storage.

Why the big adios?
The folks at Park Hotels & Resorts, who own these giants, are throwing in the towel (metaphorically, of course). They're citing concerns about the city's post-pandemic recovery, including things like remote work keeping office buildings empty and, well, let's just say they weren't exactly thrilled with the state of some of the streets.
So, what does this mean for your next S.F. getaway?
Don't fret just yet, vacation enthusiasts! This isn't a total apocalypse for San Francisco's hospitality scene. There are still plenty of amazing hotels to choose from. Think of it as an opportunity to explore a new part of town or discover a hidden gem! Plus, who knows, maybe these two hotels will find new life under different management. They could become a luxury cat condo complex, a retirement home for disco balls... the possibilities are endless (and slightly ridiculous)!
Tip: Every word counts — don’t skip too much.
